This morning on Less than 1: a judge upholds the $6 million social media addiction verdict against Meta and YouTube, and a Los Angeles jury awards $32 million to the family of a woman who died after decades of exposure to asbestos-contaminated Johnson's Baby Powder. Also: the Palisades Fire arson trial gets underway, the VA scales back its West L.A. veteran housing plan, and a deadline looms for an L.A. ballot measure that would extend local voting rights to noncitizens.
